tv in my eye Lyrics

so you walk into my office
and you look just like me
we were wearin' next to nothin'
cuz we saw it on tv
have you seen the new season?
there's a new family!
everything is so familiar
unto you and unto me
and we all know what to eat
and we all know what to wear
and we all know what to buy
got a tv in my eye
its a simple operation
to this special point of view
and its hard to stop standin'
its the only thing to do
can you show me a reason for the new tyranny?
the fbi is in the next room
[inaudible]
and we all know what to eat
and we all know what to wear
and we all know what to buy
got a tv in my eye

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
